This cute little guy wants to hold up your books, and maybe take a bite out of them, too, if you don't watch out!
This adorable monster bookend is super easy to make as long as you know how to use a hot glue gun. If you don't, it might take a little longer;). Actually, I set out to make a whale bookend, but I got the facial features wrong, and it ended up looking more like a monster than a whale. Still, you've got to admit he's pretty cute( despite his many teeth.)
How to Make
This bookend shouldn't take very long to make. It's a cute gift idea as well. First I cut a blue semicircle to match the front of the of the bookend. Then I hot glued the paper onto the bookend.I had to glue it on in sections because it's hard to glue paper to metal- (the glue cools off really quickly).
Next I cut out a bunch of tiny white teeth and glued them on. (I accordion folded a piece of paper and cut out my teeth from that.)
After that, I glued a red half circle on the front part of the bookend below the teeth to act as a tongue before gluing on two white paper eyes with black pupils drawn on.
Finally, I added two red eyebrows, and there you have it! An adorable monster bookend!
